Zhou Qingyun said he would handle the matter, and he really did.

Chen Suwen didn't know how he managed to resolve Zhou Mingye's situation just as they were about to leave Hongping Brigade.

Zhou Qingyun's family is registered in Guangzhou, but it's not easy for Zhou Mingye to register his household in Guangzhou, so he hasn't moved his household registration.

Moreover, rural residents can be allocated land in the future. Although Zhou Mingye will be going to Guangzhou with them, his household registration will still be in Hongping Brigade. He may be able to get some land then.

Some people who marry city dwellers find it difficult to obtain urban household registration even when their children's household registration follows the woman's. This is even more true in cases like Zhou Mingye's.

They simply took this opportunity to write a written agreement, giving Zhou Mingye's custody to Zhou Qingyun and Chen Suwen, while his household registration remained in his hometown.

Starting today, Zhou Mingye and Zhou Pingwen's family have no further connection.

The Zhou family was hoping that Zhou Mingye would settle down in Guangzhou or become successful in the future so they could come and beg for his money, but that was impossible.

Zhou Qingyun will not give that chance.

Of course, Zhou Qingyun didn't give Zhou Pingwen any money. With his intervention and the intervention of other respected elders in the Zhou family, Zhou Pingwen and his family had no choice but to "give away" their unwanted grandson because they couldn't get the kidney.

"Grandpa, I'll miss you." Before leaving, Zhou Mingye held Zhou Qingshan's hand tightly, showing how much he liked Zhou Qingshan.

He desperately wanted to become Zhou Qingshan's grandson, but he knew that although Zhou Qingshan's family wasn't very poor, no one would be willing to support him.

Zhou Qingshan rubbed the child's head.

After Zhou Mingye officially became a child of Zhou Qingyun's family, he was taken to be cleaned up.

The once dirty child, who had no one to bathe him and no hot water to bathe him in the cold weather, is now clean and tidy.

Even some of his long hair was cut short. His hair was quite fine and soft, and after it was cut short, it felt fluffy and nice to touch.

After the child was washed, their fair skin and bright blue eyes looked even more beautiful and adorable.

"Little Ye, go with your fourth grandpa. Come back to see your great-grandpa when you have time." Zhou Qingshan was also quite happy that this child could have a good future.

It's such a pity that Zhou Ziquan died so young.

If he were still alive, he might have achieved the same level of success as his fourth brother. He really had high hopes for this young man back then.

Who would have thought that he would die in an accident?

Zhou Qingshan hopes that his only son can grow up safely and healthily.

"Grandpa, I will miss you. I will definitely come back to see you in the future."

Zhou Mingye hugged Zhou Qingshan's leg. He was very reluctant to part with his great-grandfather, but his memories of Hongping Brigade weren't exactly pleasant.

People didn't exactly avoid him like the plague, but they weren't exactly friendly either. Some of the children, being innocent and naive, would blurt out hurtful things without hesitation.

Of course, it's not to say that the people in Hongping Brigade treated him badly, but he wasn't particularly reluctant to leave.

Of all the people, only his great-grandfather was the one he was most reluctant to part with.

But Zhou Mingye knew that he was going to live at his fourth grandfather's house, and he couldn't bring his great-grandfather with him at all.

"Okay, Grandpa knows. Take good care of yourself and grow up safely." Zhou Qingshan patted his head again and gave him his instructions.

While Zhou Qingshan and Zhou Mingye were bidding each other a reluctant farewell like grandfather and grandson, Chen Suwen was also saying goodbye to Huang Erniu.

"Sister-in-law, this separation may last for several years. You must take good care of yourself."

"Don't wait until I receive another message from you to find out that something has happened to you."

Huang Erniu couldn't help but roll her eyes upon hearing this. "Can't you speak properly? What do you mean, 'what happened to me'?"

"Can't you wish me well for once? Can't you say that the next time you hear news about me, it's because someone in my family got into university or went to work in Guangzhou?"

"Sister-in-law, you're still as annoying as ever."

The conflict between Huang Erniu and Chen Suwen wasn't particularly deep, after all, the two sisters-in-law lived in different places and didn't spend much time together.

Even though Huang Erniu was occasionally jealous of her, she still couldn't compare to the other sisters-in-law who lived in the same Hongping Brigade and saw each other all the time.

She has significant conflicts with her sisters-in-law, with whom she sees frequently.

However, Chen Suwen's words were always unpleasant, and Huang Erniu was not a tolerant or forgiving person, so the two often argued and fought.

“It’s good that you don’t come back often; seeing you annoys me.” Huang Erniu said this with great sincerity.

Chen Suwen sneered, "You talk as if I'm not annoyed by you. I'm actually quite happy that I won't see you for several years."

"But sister-in-law, you must raise your children well, and raise a few college students or children who can go to Guangzhou to make a living."

Huang Erniu couldn't help but roll her eyes at her sister-in-law's words. "You don't need to worry about it. My third son is doing very well in the army. We have successful children in our family too."

Chen Suwen didn't ask how her eldest brother's third son was doing in the army, but she was sure he wasn't doing as well as her son-in-law.

After saying goodbye for a while, it was almost time, so everyone got on the bus and went home.

On the way, Zhou Mingye sat with Zhao Lexin and the others, and the children chatted happily.

"Don't worry, little brother, I'll take care of you when we get home. If anyone bullies you, you can tell me, and I'll fight back for you." Zhou Mei patted her chest, assuring her that as the older sister, she would definitely protect her younger brother.

Seven-year-old Zhou Mei is one year older than Zhou Mingye, and she calls herself the older sister without any problem.
